記得以前，上學途中會經過一家棺材店，總以為裡面有死人，快跑通過，那股混合杉木和油漆的氣味，至今記憶深刻。直到我信仰後，參加告別式，擔任禮生，當著遺體誦經，對人往生才習以為常。日蓮大聖人說：「先習臨終，後習他事。」是要吾人正視死亡，才會思考想過怎樣的人生？生命有限，得來不易，勿蹉跎時光，要利用剩餘時光，發揮最大價值。本裝置，除了想告訴世人莫等時間盡了，才後悔空過，且不避諱為己預設了我的告別式。在靈前，以乾燥花木佈置，後面樹立枯木，象徵生命枯萎；場中放送誦經音樂，塑造哀思氣氛；沒有低俗與喧鬧，換以高雅與靜肅的告別式。靈後沒有放棺木，只見伸向天空的枯木，下懸吊結合骨灰的時鐘，綻放微光；鐘面上刻有25小時，指針不停轉動，發揮最後剩餘價值，除了可讓後人追思，並記錄我下半生是以一天有25的小時，奮鬥不懈創造新美好的精神。

I remember when I passed by a coffin shop on my way to school, I always thought there was a dead person inside, so I ran through it. The smell of mixed fir and paint is still deeply in my memory. It wasn’t until after I became a believer that I attended the farewell ceremony, served as a celebrant, and chanted sutras in front of the body, that I became accustomed to people’s death. Nichiren Daishonin said: "Learn about dying first, and then learn about other things." Is it because we have to face death squarely before we can think about what kind of life we ​​want to live? Life is limited and hard-earned. Don’t waste your time. Use the remaining time to maximize your value. This device not only wants to tell the world not to wait for time to run out before regretting it, but also does not shy away from presetting my farewell ceremony for myself. In front of the funeral, dry flowers and trees are arranged, and dead trees are erected behind, symbolizing the withering of life; chanting music is played in the venue to create a mournful atmosphere; there is no vulgarity and noise, but an elegant and solemn farewell style. The coffin was not placed after the death, but the dead wood stretched to the sky, and the clock combined with the ashes was suspended under it, blooming twilight; 25 hours were engraved on the clock face, and the hands kept turning, giving full play to the last remaining value, in addition to allowing future generations to remember , and record that in the second half of my life, I have 25 hours a day and a spirit of unremitting struggle to create new beauty.
